What color is Sherwin Williams Fired Brick?

Sherwin Williams Fired Brick SW 6335 is a deep, earthy red-brown with a clear terracotta cast. Its muted saturation keeps the color grounded rather than bright, making it especially effective where a richer wall color is wanted without a cherry-red effect. In strong daylight, Fired Brick can show more of its warm red character, while lower light brings forward its brown, clay-like depth. Try it on a dining room wall, a fireplace surround, or built-in cabinetry paired with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and cream textiles. For exterior accents, it suits front doors or shutters alongside soft beige stone and charcoal roofing.

LRV of Fired Brick

Fired Brick has an LRV of 7.87% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 7.87%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
